Objective To investigate the effects of nonadrenergic noncholinergic (NANC) neuro transmitter on the frequency and strength of the automatic contractility of detrusor strip. Methods Cystometry was performed to observe the occurance of detrusor instability (DI) after 6 weeks of Wistar rats LUT. Then the rats were sacrified and their detrusors were made into strips to observe the effect of NANC vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) and adenosine triphoate(ATP) on the frequency and the strength of automatic contractility. Results The occurrence rate of DI was 62% after 6 weeks of obstruction of LUT; VIP and ATP could significantly inhibit the automatic contraction ability of detrusor strip, decreasing the frequency and the strength of the automatic contraction of detrusor ( P 0.05). Conclusions VIP and ATP can significantly inhibit the frequency and strength of the automatic contractibility of normal and obstructive detrusor.

Objective To detect the expression of microRNA(miRNAs)in the late stage terminal hindgut de-velopment in fetal rats.Methods Twenty -four female rats were randomly divided into 2 groups.They were matched in proportion of male and female 21 .The experimental rats(n =1 2)received 1 0 g/L ethylenethiourea (1 25 mg/kg)by gavage on gestational day 1 1 ,and the control rats (n =1 2)received same amount of distilled water.The fetal rats were obtained by caesarean section on the gestational day 1 6 in each group.One centimeter rectum was taken out from 2 similar weight fetal rats for extracting total RNA by Trizol method.There were 24 fetal rats in each group.Chip hybri-dization was conducted after Poly(A)and biotin added to the RNA.Then,the chip was washed and dyed,and scanned thereafter.According to the differences in the expression profile of miRNAs and target gene analysis results,the miRNAs probably regulating the key gene of hindgut development was selected for target genes expression analysis.Results Compared with control group,expressions of 1 1 1 miRNAs in terminal hindgut of experimental group were up -regulated on the gestational day 1 6,and 1 1 7 miRNAs were down -regulated.Ten miRNAs of biggest differential expression be-tween them were selected for target genes prediction,pathway analysis,and Gene Ontology analysis.The results showed that some genes were closely related to rat fetus terminal hindgut growth and development,such as Shh,Hoxd13,and so on.According to the differential expression of miRNAs and target genes analysis,miR -1 93 might have an important role in the Hoxd13 gene for anorectal development.Real -Time PCR and Western blot showed that the expression of Hoxd13 and its protein level were significantly decreased when miR -1 93 highly expressed in rat intestinal epithelial cells,and the difference was statistically significant compared with the control group(1 .00 ±0.1 2 vs 0.71 ±0.1 0) (0.88 ±0.06 vs 0.75 ±0.08)(t =3.329,3.1 30;P =0.029,0.01 1 ).Conclusions miRNAs probably have an im-portant regulatory role in their target gene expression in terminal hindgut development of fetal rats,and miR -1 93 can significantly inhibit the expression of Hoxd13 gene in rat intestinal epithelial cells.

AIM: To investigate the effects of antisense oligonucleotides (asODN) of PKC-? and PKA-Ⅰon growth and proliferation of the CNE-2Z cells. METHODS: The expression of PKC-? and PKA-Ⅰ was observed with immunohistochemistry method. The asODNs of (1)PKC-?, (2)PKA-Ⅰ, (3)PKC-? and PKA-Ⅰ, were transfected into CNE-2Z cells by lipofectin (LP), and a random sequence as a control was used. The cell growth index (GI) and the clone formation rate of CNE-2Z were detected by MTT colorimetric assay and soft agar assy, respectively. RESULTS: The expression of PKC-? or PKA-Ⅰin CNE-2Z in experimental group were both significantly lower than that of control group(P

Objective To explore the mechanism of the referred pains in pelvic pain due to chronic prostatitis and the relation between pain due to prostatitis and pelvic floor muscle dysfunction. Methods The retrograde fluorescent double labeling and immunohistochemistry were used. A total of 24 Wistar rats were divided two groups, 12 in each group. In the first group, Propidium Iodide(PI) was injected into the prostate, Bisbenzimide(Bb)into the external anal sphincter. In the second group, PI was injected into the prostate, Bb into genitofemoral, iliohypogastric, ilioinguinal, femoral and lateral femoral cutaneous nerves. Results The fluorescent double labeled cells were found in the L 1 L 2 and L 6～S 3 dorsal root ganglia(DRG) and some of them were confirmed to contain calcitonin gene related peptide(CGRP) and P substance (SP) by immunohistochemistry. Conclusion The findings confirm that the peripheral process of DRG cells dichotomizes into prostate, external anal sphincter and somatic parties, and some of these cells contain CGRP and SP, which indicates the referred pains in pelvic floor may be caused by axon reflex in the peripheral process of DRG cells. Meanwhile, neurogenic inflammation might play an important role in this persistent pain status. Pain due to prostatitis is correlated with pelvic floor muscle dysfunction.

Objective To elucidate the neurological mechanism of the referred pains in pelvic floor associated with the prostate. Methods The rat prostate was electrically stimulated, then the elicited action potentials (AP) of the lumbar and sacral nerves and the compound muscle action potentials from the external sphincter muscle of anus were detected. Results Action potentials from the iliohypogastric, genitofemoral, lateral femoral cutaneous, femoral, sciatic nerves compound muscle action potentials (CMAP) from the anal external sphincter were recorded. Conclusion Electric stimulation of the prostate can induce action potentials of the lumbar and sacral efferent nerves through the spinal reflex, resulting in referred pains in the perineal and pelvic areas due to muscle contraction.

Objective To evaluate the diagnostic value of high frequency echocardiography on mice with doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity and find out the most valuable monitoring indexes for early doxorubicin-induced myocardial damage.Methods Forty mice were divided into doxorubicin-injection group (ADM group) and control group randomly.Twenty mice in each group were injected with doxorubicin and saline at the same dose for 5 weeks continuously.The parameters of cardic function of ADM group and contol group were observed by high-frequency echocardiography after infection.Brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) tested by euzymelinked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) and pathological findings were used as the golden standard.Results ①The left ventricular long axis view and the apical four chamber view could be displayed clearly by transthoracic high-frequency echocardiography.②After 5 weeks intervention,weight,heart rate,left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF),left ventricular fractional shortening (LVFS),E/A,E wave deceleration time(EDT) and other parameters showed marked difference between ADM group and control group(P ＜0.05).③The decrease of diastolic function was earlier than systolic function in ADM group.④LVEF and E/A presented good negative linear correlation to BNP(r =-0.622,P ＜0.05; r =-0.593,P ＜0.01).EDT showed positive linear correlation to BNP(r =0.501,P ＜0.05).Conclusions Cardic function of mice with doxorubicin-induced myocardial damage could be early evaluated accurately by high-frequency echocardiography,which contained good relativity with BNP.
